Disclosed is a lumbar support system enabling the lower back to recoil during open canopy descent. The system includes at least one lumbar strap linked by a front link to the lower part of the main lift webs and arranged in such a way that same is adapted to be linked at least in one point to the back straps when arranged in a “V” shape at the rear of the parachute pack, or in two spaced-apart locations when arranged separately. After the main parachute opening, the angular pivoting of the lumbar strap performed by the transfer of the load onto the back of the user increases the respective spacing of the two main lift webs, which allows the lower back to recoil.
